Receiving Wealth (Nà Cái)
Receiving money, such as collecting payments, stocking inventory, or making deposits. ⚠️ Shares the same pinyin as 'nà cǎi' (marriage proposal) but uses different characters.
In traditional almanacs, 'Nà Cái' primarily refers to the act of bringing money into one's household. This includes collecting debts owed, a shop restocking its inventory, or depositing cash into a bank. In the past, people believed that carrying out these activities on a day suitable for 'Nà Cái' would ensure money flows in smoothly, accounts remain clear, and wealth accumulates. This auspicious/inauspicious guideline is closely tied to business activities and personal financial management. In modern life, although the methods for collecting payments or making deposits have changed significantly, some people still consult the traditional calendar to choose what they feel is a lucky day to handle large financial inflows.
